Remember when I wrote the first post about the most wonderful human being, named Kim Jonghyeon? I've been worshiping him for years before that. The world lost its most spectacular, precious and pure treasure today.
I can't write. I can't think, and I'm barely able to function. I can't form any coherent thought. I can only cry.
And I will cry for the rest of my life.

In 1962
"Infamous Columbus Day Storm strikes the U.S. Pacific Northwest with
record wind velocities; 46 dead and at least U.S. $230 million in
damages". Therefore today's Throwback Thursday is to the storm, howling winds and rain pounding like hellhounds during John Bonham's replacement casting.

Somehow looking for Kim Namgil newest drama episode files has led me to finding this documentary from 2014. I do understand the logic behind it - after all people died in Sewol ferry sinking.
I won't say enjoy, but this is very well done documentary, although it's in Japanese and has only Korean subtitles.

In 1940 Sir Patrick Stewart was born and in 2305, Captain Jean-Luc Picard. And since Harrison Ford was born on the very same day, a man has something to say as well, so today's Throwback Thursday is to the music from works of these men.

Season two left us mourning with Johnny after Pawter died, and with the plot to control the Westerly unfolding even more.

This was probably one of the most bizarre and yet endearing movies I have seen lately.

Starting a movie or a drama with Kim Namgil is like opening a Pandora box indeed - you never know what horrible death awaits his character by the end.

This is a 4-part drama that aired last year, and last month I stumbled upon it and then, completely spontaneously, I decided to give it a go. And despite the style of it being over-the-top comedy, this little series is pretty heavy from all the social issues it tackles.

second-largest volcanic eruption on Earth in this century. Therefore, today's Throwback Thursday is to the year 1991.
I also had songs about volcanoes in mind, but I was afraid that one pun-loving man on my t-list would have a field day.
